THE WONDERS of CHIOS

The advent of COVID-19 has proven that the Project 2018-1-TR01-KA203-058344 TOURiBOOST has been ahead of the time in regards to the digital use of cultural heritage. Working with the Tourism Department of the UNIVERSITY OF THE AEGEAN in Chios, Greece, the TOURiBOOST Project has built the first attempt to train multilevel actors to use cultural values for tourism development. The results shall further help local actors perceive the nature-size of the problem the cultural sector is facing in the times of COVID-19 to identify remedies, frameworks and models for the validated context creation in the participatory cultural heritage space.

The “WONDERS of CHIOS” is a cross-platform eBook, which is presenting the story of the Unesco listed mastic in the island of CHIOS

Happy reading!
